I have the overdrive 10.0 terrible sail ,and feels very heavy - must be all that crappy paint that they coat their sails in to make them look &#39;modern&#39;.
Use it with the blueline 520

Hi All,

The Severne Overdrive have a very big succes here in the FE Class, but also in slalom.

Even with the paint that people love it here, we have no problems with scratch (very good paint quality) and the sail is still the ligther one compare to the other compagny. But also the profil give a very good power with good stability.
Excellent results in many windsurf magasine, so very good product.

Have fun

The Sailworks is a good choice. I have always had great success with Sailworks .. it would great if they could get a bit more publicity and hence sales. They should sponsor the PWA and a few pros on the PWA tour.

Well, actually I am now leaning towards the Sailworks NXfw 9.9 and 8.5, as I already have a Sailworks 490 SpeedStick mast that would work with the 8.5.

In asking around I have heard nothing but good about the NX&#39;s, so I will give those a try...

Thanks for the input!

One of the worst sails ever.
What a waste coating a race sail with paint?
It looks horrible.
It adds weight.
It adds zero performance.
It scratches and your sails looks old.
Why paint a sail?

If Severne Sails can approve and manufacture a painted sail for production, then it must give you a few clues about the design. That it, probably bad as well. They must be a smart bunch over there at Severne Sails!

Hi,

the Overdrive is a great sail. I like it a lot, I mainly use the 11.0 and have used the 10.0 in windy days. I used it mostly in the Gorge during the Formula Experience Worlds two years ago and I really think is a great sail. Have lots of range to use either in light or strong winds.

I will strongly reccomend this sail.

Best luck!
